(f. 155d.)
To the king, on the complaint of Galhardus, cardinal of St. Lucy's, touching the appointment made by the king to Robert de Baldok of a prebend of Lincoln, papal provision of which had been made to the said cardinal. By authority of Nicholas IV. in August 1290, the prebend of Lincoln, called Ayllesbury, with the chapel of Milton, was divided; and Milton becoming void by the death of Gilbert de Segrave, canon, and archdeacon of Oxford, was given by Clement V. to the said cardinal, who held it and the archdeaconry for seven years. The division, having been made without royal authority, and the prebend in its entirety belonging, in the voidance of the see, to the king's collation, it was given to Robert de Baldok. On the see being filled, the bishop, by the king's order, cited the cardinal to show cause why he should not be removed from the prebend, on which appeal was made to the pope. The notary who was required to draw up the necessary instrument refused, on the pretext of some royal edict, by which such appeal would be construed as a violation of the king's right. The division having been made in the reign of the king's father, and having been allowed to stand to the present time, the pope, considering that the king's right is in no way infringed, prays him to revoke what has been done against the said cardinal.
Concurrent request to the archbishop of Canterbury to use his influence with the king, sending him a copy of the above letter.
